Tag - Easter Party Menu

I'm a little late to the game here today but I was so graciously tagged by Lyndsey of The Tiny Skillet to participate in a dinner menu game and had to partake.  The process appears to be to choose 5-10 recipes from your past posts and create a dinner menu (including links to the past posts and a photo) then choose 10 other bloggers to do the same.

Since Easter is about half over, let's just make it a dinner party for any occasion.  I'm such a rule breaker.  :)

Here is my kid friendly dinner party menu.  Not sure these all flow together to make a nice meal, but then again, mine never do anyway:
Rum Cocktails (no rum for the kiddos of course, but they'll love the coconut "cup")
Lentil Soup with cornbread
Wasabi Tuna Rolls for the vegetarians
Creamy Peach Pie for dessert

Ten bloggers I'd love to see put together a menu:

Kristy from My Little Space
Bo from Bo's Bowl
Michael from Me, My Food & I
Little J from Whisk It Good
Julia from No Face Plate
Catherine from Living the Gourmet

Oops, I think that's 11.  Sorry for any double tagging.  I have about 300 more bloggers I'd love to tag as well.  :)  Thanks Lyndsey for including me in this fun project.  It was great to look back and some older posts.
Happy Easter to those who celebrate!

Food Fest - New Mexico

The fam and I are planning to hit up New Mexico for our next vacation.  Preliminary deets and some really pretty New Mexico photos available here - New Mexico trip.  If all things go as planned, we will be heading out west in August.

Of course, being that eats are one of the most important parts of any trip, I'm asking all my lovely readers for any dining suggestions out in that neck of the woods.  Most of our trip will be centered around Santa Fe and Albuquerque (I will never get that spelling correct and it will always make me think of Bugs Bunny), but we also hope to head south to White Sands National Monument and Carlsbad Caverns.

For now I know we need to have huevos rancheros for breakfast, try out pizza with blue corn dough, and indulge in some sopapillas and indian fry bread.  That's all we have at the moment.

Lisa from Respect the Shoes was nice enough to give me some great places in Albuquerque, but the more the merrier.  In return, I promise to post a day by day report of our New Mexico eats upon our return so you can all drool over the yummy goodness.  Hello chiles!

So, ya got anything for me?
